Fibrelux, a Malaysian-based company founded in 1972, specializes in producing and supplying high-quality rubberized coir mattresses, using only the very best natural ingredients. Fibrelux mattresses are made from coir fiber, which is derived from coconut shells with pure natural latex as adhesive, which ensures that the mattresses are unsurpassed in resilience, durability, and ventilation. The company is known for its strong track record in filling and covering materials for the car and furniture industry, which it has applied to making the revolutionary rubberized coir mattresses.
Fibrelux's commitment to quality is evidenced by its ISO 9001 certification, which demonstrates its quality and product excellence. The company's products also meet regulatory requirements such as the standard of the Japan Industrial Standard (JIS). Fibrelux exports up to 77% of its products to Japan, Korea, China, Taiwan, Maldives, Russia, France, Belgium, Brunei, and Singapore.
Fibrelux's mattresses are made from coir fiber and natural latex, which makes them firm, porous, and breathable, providing adequate support to the entire body. These mattresses readily allow the passage of air in and out, rendering them cool sleeping surfaces, which is crucial for individuals with back pain. They provide rigid support along the length of the spine, maintaining natural spine alignment, and are the perfect balance of rigidity and softness, giving users a soft yet supportive sleeping surface.
Unlike synthetic materials, natural fibers go well with the skin, as they have always been part of the ventilating agent of a living object and are naturally designed to transport humidity. Rubberized coir mattresses are also sustainable, unlike petroleum-based products, as coconut (coir fiber's natural form) has no limit in supply, and the ecological balance is maintained. Coir fibers are mostly disposable by-products of a different process, and in Japan, coir fiber is reused as a growing medium in gardening.
Sleeping on a hard surface can reshape the back and realign the body. A firm sleep surface helps the body's relationship with gravity, with the earth, and this is a therapeutic practice available to all of us, which works while we sleep. Smooth and firm beds are essential because they help distribute weight evenly, and the muscles can completely relax. During the day, the spine is in a curved state, so only on a hard bed is correcting the spinal column made possible. A hard bed stimulates the skin, activates the operation of cutaneous venous vessels, prevents the lowering of the liver, accelerates the blood supply to the skin, and provides sound sleep and a spirited state.
While there isn't any solid scientific research on how the surface we sleep on affects the quality of sleep, one study published in 2011 surveyed 128 healthy people who had no sleep disorders and had them each sleep on seven unidentified mattresses, each with a different firmness level, for one month at a time. The research proved that the "best" bed varied greatly between individuals. However, for individuals with back pain, in the past, doctors often recommended very firm mattresses to treat lower back pain. Still, one survey of 268 people with low back pain found that those who slept on very hard mattresses had the poorest sleep quality. Soft mattresses, on the other hand, can also be problematic, and the best are those who used medium-firm and firm mattresses.
In summary, Fibrelux is a high-quality brand that specializes in rubberized coir mattresses made from sustainable and ethical sources. Their mattresses offer a firm yet supportive sleeping surface that can aid in maintaining natural spine alignment and promoting good circulation. While scientific research on the effects of mattresses on sleep quality is limited, the use of medium-firm or firm mattresses is generally recommended, and the benefits of sleeping on a hard surface have been touted by health pioneers like Katsuzo Nishi. With Fibrelux's commitment to using only the best natural materials and achieving certifications for quality and product excellence, they provide a reliable and eco-friendly option for those seeking a comfortable and healthy sleeping experience.
